A very brilliant analysis...commendable scholarship Great work It is always good to have some insights into our
endemic problems. A terrific piece of work and I wish to congratulate you for
doing a marvellous job. Your policy papers on Sierra Leone are very thorough and well
researched. Thanks for your papers. You are a great educator. A very insightful and realistic work. A well written anthology of essays] and I am not the least in
doubt of what you can do as I know somewhere there is still some
bigger "mental bomb" waiting to explode in your make up. While there is a longing for development ideas and leadership education in Sierra Leone, there is a dearth in relevant texts on the subject. Moreover, a generation of flawed policies and poor governance has hampered understanding of the cultural, social and economic influences on management of the weakening institutions of Sierra Leone. This book thus provides an invaluable empirical plinth for advancing development knowledge and social innovation and change in Sierra Leone. Arising from an interest in pursuing research and scholarship in policy development, Sierra Leone Policy Papers is an anthology of researched essays of forecasts, trends, and ideas about government in Sierra Leone. It combines analysis, theory, and political trends to explore the influences on leadership and institutional performance in Sierra Leone and attempts to push the boundaries of development policy. In doing so, it explores how much can be learned from examining Sierra Leone's leadership and management challenges towards realizing the potential of a Sierra Leonean regeneration, and to discerning what the global community may learn from Sierra Leone. Sierra Leone Policy Papers is much-needed scholarship of the political and leadership dynamics of Sierra Leone that should be appreciated by public officials, as well as researchers and policy makers in the international development community.
The Postcolonial Subject in Transit presents in-depth analyses of the complex transitional migratory identities evident in emerging African diasporic writings. It provides insights into the hybridity of the migrant experience, where the migrant struggles to negotiate new cultural spaces. It shows that while some migrants successfully adapt and integrate into new Western locales, others exist at the margins unable to fully negotiate cultural difference. The diaspora becomes a space for opportunities and economic mobility, as well as alienation and uncertainties. This illuminates the heterogeneity of the African diasporic narrative; expanding the dialogue of the diaspora, from one of simply loss and melancholia to self-realization and empowerment.
